Newstead Perth - Evandale

Perth - Evandale and Newstead are two nearby Tasmanian areas with similar populations but very different layouts. Newstead is very walkable and has a much higher share of university graduates (29.5% compared to 14.8% in Perth - Evandale). The two areas differ greatly in housing and transport; Perth - Evandale is mostly car-dependent, with more separate houses and larger homes, while Newstead has more renters and far better access to public transport and health services by foot.

These two areas share a very similar typical weekly household income of around $1,450. They also have almost identical proportions of people with no religion and those providing unpaid care. While they are alike in these ways, some gaps are growing. More people are being born overseas and using another language at home in Newstead, and the gap in university qualifications between the two areas has widened since 2011.
